Abstract

Several risk and protective factors across the family and school domains are linked to adolescent delinquency. In this study, we identified profiles of ecological risk and protective factors in Black youth during middle childhood (N = 1601) and examined if profile membership predicted later delinquency during adolescence. Latent class analyses yielded five distinct ecological profiles in Black youth during childhood that differed by sex and were associated with unique risk for delinquency and arrest in adolescence. Implications and considerations for intervention planning with the goal of reducing delinquency risk involving the individual child and the family and school ecological system are discussed.

儿童生态风险及学校和家庭保护因素对黑人青少年犯罪的预测

家庭和学校领域的一些风险和保护因素与青少年犯罪有关。在这项研究中，我们确定了黑人青年在童年中期的生态风险和保护因素的特征（N = 1601），并检验了特征成员是否能预测青少年后期的犯罪行为。潜在阶级分析在黑人青年的童年时期产生了五种不同的生态特征，这些特征因性别而异，并且与青少年犯罪和被捕的独特风险有关。本文讨论了干预计划的意义和考虑因素，目的是减少涉及儿童个体和家庭及学校生态系统的犯罪风险。

期刊介绍： The Journal of Criminal Justice is an international journal intended to fill the present need for the dissemination of new information, ideas and methods, to both practitioners and academicians in the criminal justice area. The Journal is concerned with all aspects of the criminal justice system in terms of their relationships to each other. Although materials are presented relating to crime and the individual elements of the criminal justice system, the emphasis of the Journal is to tie together the functioning of these elements and to illustrate the effects of their interactions. Articles that reflect the application of new disciplines or analytical methodologies to the problems of criminal justice are of special interest. Since the purpose of the Journal is to provide a forum for the dissemination of new ideas, new information, and the application of new methods to the problems and functions of the criminal justice system, the Journal emphasizes innovation and creative thought of the highest quality.
